Ready for Shipshewana

I'm all packed and ready to head for Shipshewana, bright and early in the morning. I'm to pick Janet up at 5:30, then we'll be on our way. I'm so ready for a quilting break. We have 56 quilters from California, Michigan, Wisconsin, Kentucky, Illinois, Ohio and Indiana. What a great time we will have!!

Dan finished making a big board ironing surface for one lucky quilter to win as a door prize. Thanks Honey!

I did quilt one more quilt this week for Virginia, so I'll be taking 3 of them to her tomorrow. This one is a Christmas quilt and I marked opposing diagonal lines in the border and quilted holly leaves and a loop.

One other thing I did this week was make this dress for a college freshman to wear for halloween. She is going to add some black felt spots to complete her Pebbles costume.

I'm retired from my Graphic Design job at The National Group and a full-time long-arm quilter. I'm married and have 2 sons and a daughter, 1 stepson, 3 grandsons, 4 granddaughters, 4 step-granddaughters and a step-grandson.
